Gang of Four - Entertainment

It's here! I was about to give up hope. I used to own this record, back in the vinyl days, but lost all my records when I went to college. I need this record. Music to soothe the savage beast, or cubicle dwelling office worker. The Gang of Four's Entertainment is one of my favorite records of all time. As anyone who looks at my blog knows, I am a huge Gang of Four fan. See my June 3rd posts about the Gang of Four and their influences, Song of the Day - June 3, 2005The Influence of the Gang of Four, if you doubt my praise for this band. As I mentioned earlier this month, the band, and especially this album, have been hugely influential to the bands that are popular today;bands like The Futureheads and Franz Ferdinand. If you have never listened to this classic album, please do. You will immediately think this record is a new release, but it actually was recorded over 25 years ago. I love all the music on this record, but if I had to pick a few to recommend, they would include:Damaged Goods, Not Great Man, Outside the Trains Don't Run On Time, He'd Send In the Army, and for lovers of feedback, check out Anthrax.
